Wowza! Are you excited about what God is doing all over the world. You only have to cruise the websites to find story after story of fresh miracles, signs and wonders invading the earth. Rick Joyner, Morningstar in his weekly bulletin says...
I have been receiving communications from around the United States and Europe that are all reporting the same thing—they are seeing healings and miracles on a level like they have never seen before. This is a time of a great visitation of God to His people. Even so, I remain convinced that what we are now experiencing is a birth pang, a spiritual contraction that is preparing us for the birth of an even greater move of God...
When you think about all the healings and miracles that are now taking place -and there are now too many to document, it is amazing to think this is just the beginning. Rick is predicting another big shift around September time. Rick is a trusted voice not given to exaggeration or hype. So this is encouraging! What that will look like we do not know. Whatever happens God is coming in power and it is not going away.
Still we are more convinced than ever that the wild fire Martin Scott prophesied about (which is now beginning to spread) is essential to see this break out beyond the box and control systems of church as we have know it. Some of this present move with Lakeland is turning into clones and domesticated four walls religion here in the UK. Sticking the word "Outpouring" on meetings doesn't mean it's really breaking out like Lakeland. Lakeland is unique. We must all be careful not to hype up and not to water down what God is doing to a lower level by copying and trying to make things happen. An outpouring is not a nice meeting where a few healings take place - come on! That's why I like the Morningstar "Breakout" - it's wild free, and God is moving through the congregation not just the front people...
...a trend I have observed is that many of the great miracles take place and no one, including the person who received the healing or miracle, knows who prayed for them. I love this because Jesus receives the glory and the people's faith grows in Jesus rather than in those praying for them
But the good news is this is also happening here in the UK where that control devil is not stopping the people flow. The wild fire is here and coming.
In Sheffield with the Pioneer guys (we love you Baz and Lyn!) we saw nothing short of an explosion during the Saturday night as Dave was sharing. Four woman at the back of the room started shaking violently as the angels came into the room. This intensified and before long the whole place was buzzing and the thing just blew up. We hope to post footage online as soon as possible for you to see what happened. It was glory invasion. God coming and taking over.
England is ripe guys. If there is anywhere in the nations right now we have our eyes on it's England. Across the nation they are embracing the flame and many new connections, wild fire groups, drinking holes are popping up. Each one is unique but marked by visitation, glory and intoxication. God is moving and He has every intention of staying.
I know some religious people hoped the crazy stuff would go away and we would return to boring formal controlled Christianity again. I'm afraid that isn't going to happen! Christianity is being radically changed in this generation just like the Lord told Mike Bickle years ago. He said audibly to him in a hotel room in Egypt something along these lines "In one generation I am going to radically change the face and expression of Christianity and it will never be irrelevant again!". God told Paul Cain around that time that He was going to fill the church with power, purity and unity. Bob Jones says this decade is the decade of the return of the glory to the church. He even goes as far as to say some will carry a literal visible presence of God on them. And we believe it! It's biblical! This is a greater covenant and each generation should walk in the promise.
One of the most exciting times over the last three days in Sheffield was on the streets. Dave and Phil prayed for a guy in a wheelchair. This is what Dave said in an email to a friend...
Things are getting pretty wild here, pulled a cripple out of a wheelchair on the streets on Saturday, he hadn't walked for years, his friends who were with him had never seen him walk and were blasted man it was crazy stuff!!
I saw it happen and it was amazing! At first the guy was so shaky and wobbly. I wanted to look away! But they prayed for him again and then virtue (strength and power) clearly came into him and suddenly BAM! he was walking normally! It was brilliant! One guys watching nearby selling razor blades on a box said "I've never seen anything like it!" We got a word of knowledge for him that he's split from his wife. We prayed for him as well. Two people got saved. Another woman with only a few months to live felt the fire of God burn through her body. We believe she is healed but only time will tell. We also got to pray for several Moslems on the streets. It was a landmark time! Cripples walk the streets of Sheffield today!!!
In the meetings the same thing was happening. A girl without arches in her feet had a creative miracle and her feet changed. A young lad had his broken toe healed. Others reported being touched. Some were crying. Others laughing. Some didn't sober up all weekend. Many were shacking. The words of knowledge flowed and several people responded. The angles showed up and you could feel the presence of God moving in the room like a wind. One couple reported gold flakes appearing in the kitchen. But one thing that is certain we have as a nation crossed over. England is ready to burn coast to coast. It is only a matter of time.
There's probably a lot more we could say but that gives you a taste of what is going on. We are so thankful to be seeing this. Our sincere belief is that we haven't seen anything yet. God spoke to me three weeks ago and said that this present move will be known for signs in the heaven and on the earth. He said that some of these signs would be so profound that even skeptics would be shut up. I saw a vision of people shaking with fear. God means business!
Hopefully we'll send out more news soon. We met in Cardiff 5 times in the last two week and a load of stuff happened. It's cooking! So keep an eye open for future gatherings. In the coming months the Emerge team will be in Stockton, Scotland, Portsmouth and other places around the UK. If you're reading this in America we will be over in September (God willing) and travelling around various States. Get ready USA for the wild fire! If you want us to come to your region of the UK get in touch. We have a green for go for the UK! Very soon there will be a marked and significant manifestation of the glory.
I'll end with this cool story from Rick Joyner from this week.. Glory!...
It is still amazing for us to watch our high school students pray for the handicapped, blind, deaf, or those with fatal diseases, believing God will heal them, and often He does. A few nights ago, I saw a commotion in the back of the room and found out that a couple of our high school girls had prayed for a young man in a wheelchair, who immediately got up and walked. He had multiple sclerosis and had not walked in seven years. It was not long before he was back in the wheelchair, not because the affliction had come back, but because he was so worn out from not using those muscles for so long. As we talked to the girls who had prayed for him, they were excited, but not overly so, because they are now expecting the Lord to do this kind of thing when they pray. There really is a new generation rising up that the supernatural will be natural to them.
Supernatural generation arise! Take it and burn!
Blessings, Emerge team
Welsh fire hits Brazil - May'08
Seems to be new stories of visitations and breakouts all the time. Have you watched the footage from Morningstar? Wow God is really moving there. We've also heard that Jim Drown has hosted some meetings in Atlanta and 2,800 people showed up. They are now doing continued meetings. Here's an update from a friend who is there right now...
I just wanted to send you a quick note and let you know about the meetings with Jim that have been going on. The venue holds about 2800 and on the first night, the placed was packed with over 500 in the parking lot watching on a big screen. Jim was blown away. Rob Deluca has come up to be with us from Lakeland. He was the one who prophesized that revival would happen through Todd. You have probably heard him speak. He is amazing. Anyhow, Jim did great and it is obvious that God has anointed him for this. The response was so great that we met with a bunch of pastors yesterday and are going to a bigger venue tonight through Monday night
Keith Miller is seeing a breakout in Dallas which is ongoing. Come on! But what about here? God is brooding looking to land! A friend from Northern England sent me this text last night...
"Dude things are really really kicking off here! There has been a massive breakout with the students. It's totally awesome! There is a meeting tomorrow night. There has been healings, deliverance and gold dust. Some guys got spontaneously baptised in a lake and 40 students showed up to see it! It's exploding man. There have been spontaneous meetings of 20 to 30 people pressing in for the glory. We're going on the streets Wed."
Yeah England! Times are changing! Are we keeping step with the Holy Spirit? Dave sent a word out this week on hosting the presence of God. It is time to lay aside preferences and contentions and say "On earth as it is in heaven!". Whether it's in a home or gatherings God's glory is going to abide.
Here's some encouraging stories from some guys who came to SloshFest from Brazil. They had a Holy Ghost breakout after going home! BAM!!! Hope it makes you hungry! We want MORE! Blessings, Emerge.
Hi emerge guys,
Thanks for a great slosh fest, we really enjoyed our time there. Having arrived back in Brazil and not really knowing why God had brought us to slosh fest. Leaving a little discouraged, feeling a little disconnected from what God was doing, but believing that God had brought us there for a reason, and that this stuff was also for us.
Sarah and I have been connecting with the youth here in a church in Brasilia. They have been meeting together every Saturday to pray and read the bible, but the youth were very discouraged, and bored really with church and religion.
We felt that we should go last Saturday and show some videos from Rick Joyner's church and also some from emerge Wales, and to share about our experiences and what God is doing in the church globally, believing for a manifestation of glory. We showed the video's and then got everyone together to seek God, about 15 people.
well.... what happened next, shocked us as much as everyone else. we were not expecting anything like this!!!
The meeting continued for hours, a heavy drunken glory descended on the place with manifestations galore.
God dust appeared on one guy's hands.
A girl was prayed for healing in her eyes, and threw her contact lenses out of the window. She felt fire in her eyes and is believing in faith for her complete healing.
Another girl was struggling with believing what was happening, but said to God 'I don't understand this, but do it anyway' (or similar). She found it hard to believe God was not a serious God. The next thing that happened, she saw an angel on her both sides, whacking their legs fast, a game which she had always loved to do, so she joined in with them!
angels were showing up, and people completely drunk, crazy dancing, laughter, joy everywhere! the youth are saying that they have never experienced anything like this before, and they will not accept anything less than this again, they want this every day.
The next day their main church met for a Sunday meeting, which is quite structured. The girl who had the contact lenses was sharing her testimony, that God had told her to throw her lenses out of the window, she had doubted before but this time knew it was God, that he was speaking to her about faith. She said to church that this life is not just for one day but it going to be normal and is available for everyone there!! As she was speaking to the church, one of the others who was in the youth meeting starts laughing uncontrollably in the middle of the church!!
This same woman later testified that her son (he was also there the night before) woke up on the Sunday morning
and he could not wait for the next meeting, so he could worship God.
one person said after the meeting that they had always thought that God could never use them to pray for someone and for the power of God to come upon them, she was shocked as she saw exactly this happen.
The youth are now phoning to say that they want to meet up in the week as they are desperate to pray! we will be meeting every Saturday evening now to press in... come on glory!
Andy and Sarah

Holy Ghost Breakout in Llanelli - May '08
Hundreds gathered in Llanelli these last few days for Sloshfest '08. All we can say is that it was a Holy Spirit breakout. A trance like realm and intoxication was released that just took over the meetings. During worship on Friday night it exploded and the Spirit of revival fell. Many were laughing and crying all at the same time. Some who'd been to Lakeland said they again felt that special presence again. Some received a baptism of love. God released several spontaneous songs. One of them was that we can handle Him. What He is going to do is out of our control and we can't handle it. John Crowder called it a historic night. Georgian and Winnie Banov were supposed to minister but stepped back. Here's how Dave Vaughan explained it to a friend in the States...
"Man it was crazy, there was such expectation from the people, more than I have ever felt. There were probably about 600 or more there, it was wild. The revival spirit came in on the Friday night so strong that Georgian wasn't needed to preach, and Winnie said that what was happening was beyond her and that we needed to run with this!! It was like a Trance like Glory, hundreds were swaying in it like a flock of birds, they were all trancing out and having visions, people started to get spontaneously healed in the Glory, it was amazing!
I personally have been in a lot of crazy stuff - we spent five months in Toronto during the revival there in 1997 - but this was another realm. Having surfed the net we found what Morningstar are experiencing right now sounds very similar. Listen to this blog from Leonard Jones on MySpace...
One interesting thing that's been happening at our nightly meetings is people are getting some dramatic healings but they're not sure who it was that prayed for them because the whole crowd is moving around kind of like a mosh-pit in slow motion, praying for anything that moves. You can hardly tell who's leading worship or who's singing what and yet there's this amazing congruity to everything and God is a wrecking ball in this place. Time to get wrecked!
If you know Morningstar this is VERY unusual. They are an awesome group of guys but the meetings are usually very well ordered. This is a Holy Spirit breakout! It sounds just like what we're seeing here. People moving together praying for each other getting wrecked. Healings and miracles just happening in the atmosphere.
There can be no doubt that the revival Spirit is now moving in the land. We are seeing so many people get wrecked - even those who haven't felt God before. The healings are continuing. Here's an update from the Antioch guys - they are hosting healing clinics this week in Llanelli..
I was doing an art workshop in Llanelli and asked one of the women, Cheryl, who uses a motorised scooter if I could pray for her. She has wasting muscles at the back of her knee and it was pointy, Prayed by putting my hand on the back of her knee where the pain was. She felt fire go through to the front of her knee, her knee cap moved. She got up and moved around and it felt better. Prayed for her again and she said it felt weird, then she said that it felt like something was being stretched in her knee. She rolled up her jeans and her knees looked exactly the same - the muscle had grown back and the knee cap had moved into place! She got up, no pain! She was in shock and felt bad because she hadn't talked to God in years!
If you need healing in your body come to Antioch or Cardiff tonight. There are meetings taking place in both locations right now.
Here's what one woman from England said about what is going on here in Wales...
OH MY GOD!!!! You broke ALL the rules!! HOW many crimes against religion did you guys commit?!! HA HA HA!! That was THE BEST EVENT EVEEEERRRRRRRRR!!!!! I have always wanted to go to a Holy Spirit party and do trance dancing!! I have pages of cool words and visions! they were not huge,panoramic out of body things yet but I experienced things that I haven't before. They would seem quite minor compared to those of Todd Bentley and others but I am on the road to them! I danced with Jesus for the first time ever, I saw angels with trumpets, I saw a bottle being poured out for me to drink (and I did! I didn't get totally wasted but it was a bit. People asked if I was OK because when they asked me a question I just sat there and slowly tried to speak! And I just sat and stared at my jeweled arm thing for ages because it was sparkly!!) I think an angel poked me and healed me but I have to wait and see. I saw Jesus at the front of the church on Sunday morning (in my head, not with my physical eyes.) I saw a beautiful female angel step out of the clouds (in my head ) and I saw God wearing a beautiful jeweled crown and He took it off and it turned into a chalice! (again, in my head)
and again another email just come in...
Hey Justin, and Emerge Wales team :D We arrived back in the North East of England ( Stockton on Tees ) at 6 am this morning. We went to church to impart what we received and it's been an awesome experience. The Holy Spirit is hitting people all over the place. One woman doesn't usually come on a Sunday and she came and was baptized in the Holy Spirit. It was class... she kept saying.." wwoooooo what's happening to me... wwooooo " Totally cool. Our Leaders are hungry too. They're making space for God to come and do his thang!!! People are being healed of deep emotional pain and abuse. God is Working here too. On Saturday evening you mentioned that it was no longer the breaker angel, its already broken out. Well we took that and believed it in at out church. We needed that for so long and tonight, to have our leadership humble themselves before the King and allow him in is awesome. The sweet sweet Jesus was loving people up all over the place. AWwwwwww Yeah! It is a love revolution. Bless you all so very verrrry much. I have never experienced Jesus so intimately before. I saw visions of places, I played in the glory like a 4 year old. Wow, it felt so liberating and beyond free. I have Jesus running through my veins and it feels ggrrrreeeeeeaaaaaattttttttt ...xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx love you guys all so much.
This wild fire is for the whole nation - England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Bob Jones said when the four natinos coming together healing would be released across the land. At Sloshfest the four nations stood together for this to take place. This is a nation united in the glory and fires of revival. We are going to find our true apostolic identity as a nation again. Europe is going to burn as this fire intensifies and a new breed of glory carriers are sent wild wandering through the nations.
Last night in Cardiff a prophetic glory came and Natasha Vaughan a fifteen year old from Pontypool took over the meeting. Tash operated in words of knowledge and the Holy Spirit just wrecked people. Afterwards someone pointed out it was significant because it was a fifteen year old girl who brought revival into Cardiff in 1904. History being continued right here and now! Tash was even prophesying over the phone hours after the meeting.
If you've been watching Lakeland Todd and Bob has both prophesied that the Welsh revival is being released now. There can be no doubt at all by any measure this is NOW taking place. Jeff Jansen said it is here. He heard the Lord say it would be called the NEW Welsh Revival. He had a visit from an angel at 3:41 in the morning - this is the number God uses when He is saying to Jeff it is a blank cheque - ask and it shall be given.
Here's an email from an emerge subscriber in the States...
"My spirit was doing somersaults last night when I heard Todd Bentley make the "proclamation" of the WELSH REVIVAL!! If you were able to see the Lakeland Outpouring last night, you probably noticed how the LORD kept hammering on "proclaim a thing and it shall be established". What an absolutely PURRFECT time for your meeting!! Though I am not able to be with you, you can be sure this long lost cousin is praying for WALES here in Atkinson, Illinois. May Winds of Change set aflame the hearts of the people. As I was praying for Wales this morning, I saw thousands of sheep making their way down craggy mountainsides and heading towards their True Shepherd. When they were safely within the confines of the True Sheepfold, the True Shepherd poured oil all down their backs. This oil killed all parasites and diseases and also served as a repellent from predators who had plagued their lives. I pray that God will raise up Honest and True Shepherds in Wales and all over the world who "count the sheep" and will not feed the sheep muddied water but pure, rivers of living water from the very throne of God. May God multiply His anointing upon you as you heal the sick, raise the dead and set the captives free! I read that God had told Denny Cline from Albany Oregon that this revival in his church would have ten times the impact than the one he had a few years back that lasted 3 years. I pray for you, that you will experience 10 times the power of the anointing on the 1904 Welsh Revival with Evan Roberts. That it will shut down entire cities and regions as the Fires of revival hit every inch of Wales, even spilling over into all the Celtic countries. I pray that Wales will be the first ENTIRE country taken for the Glory of Our wonderful LORD and Savior Jesus Christ!!! From the North to the South, and From the East to the West of Wales....I claim every square inch of it for His Abode!!! Stand strong and see what the LORD is going to do!!
This is a highly contagious glory intoxication and it is spreading. Many came from around the UK and have taken it back to their churches. Gold dust, oil, signs and wonders will become the norm as we remain in His presence. If we honour the Dove He will continue to honour us. It is HIS revival, HIS breakthrough, HIS wild fire.
Whacked up in the Wirral - Fresh stories from England! Justin Abraham
April 21, 2008
Lotta glory! He he!
There's a lot of glory! Seems to be all kicking off these days on so many fronts. We've had over a month of constant deluge of glory. When He comes, stuff just happens. In the glory there is ease! His thick, sticky honey cloud is rolling in and becoming unrelenting. Eventually it will be absolutely uncontainable. We are already seeing people get whacked by just being around us. Just this weekend an atheist got totally zapped on the streets as the Holy Ghost literally jumped on the guy in the high street! He shook and cried and had no idea what was happening! He gave his heart to the Lord in no time at all! He he! Imagine a whole generation walking in a Cloud. That is what is rising.
England's DAY has arrived!
The clock is ticking for England's hour. Martin Scott said the wild fire would come out of Wales and impact England. This is exactly what is taking place. England is rising fast. Even these recent meetings in Florida prophetic words have been given that England is on the horizon. One awesome intercessor emailed us this week from the USA to say
the entire uk.. God is going to explode in waves of glory.. and love.. and presence.. and intimacy.. and revelation.. everything that is happening in lakeland is only a TASTE of what is unfolding EVEN NOW in your midst.. look up.. look up.. look up..
Another young prophetic voice from Ireland emailed this...
I read the prophetic word Todd received from the pastor in New Zealand today..... England is mentioned! Reminded of a dream I received 3-4 years ago since hearing about what's happening in Florida now. Basically in the dream Todd was ministering in England and general media were reporting. From a newspaper report they kept referencing to the joy and Todd praying for "laughing implants" for people! England get ready!
He he! Laughing implants - love it!! We're coming into joy inexpressible and full of glory!!!
Has England ever been more hungry? It seems people are popping out of the caves all over and coming into a new realm of fresh encounters and glory again, and never being the same. Some are drunk for days and even months. The fruit is amazing. We have so many recent stories it's hard to know where to start. Jesus rocks! We have the most awesome God ever! He he! It's happening all over the place. No going back! He acts and who can stop Him? He is the wild fire!
Update from Wirral this weekend...
We've just come back from the Wirral with Pioneer People in Northern England. Despite not being used to this stuff, the guys there were so hungry they decided as a church to embrace the wild fire glory no matter what it looked like. We took a whacked up team and when we got there they had painted a big sign saying Wirral welcomes the Wild Fire. They had even gone onto the beaches to light fires looking onto Northern Wales as a prophetic act. God really honoured their faith and courage! God is raising a new breed of leaders who are risk takers and full of courage. History belongs to the courageous! History belongs to people of faith!
The Lord spoke to us once and said "If you honour my presence, I will honour you." This is exactly what happened on the weekend. These guys overcome their fears and made space for the King of Glory. The outcome was a supernatural glory filled weekend with healings, angels, fragrances, salvations & words of knowledge on the streets, and amazing stories. If this doesn't make you hungry nothing will!
Check this out...there's more stories coming but here's a quick roundup...
- A guy who couldn't laugh due to a medical condition was healed and laughed for twenty minutes straight.
- An atheist was jumped on by Holy Spirit on the streets and began to shake and cry and gave his life to the Lord. He texted us saying "I found God today!"
- God showed the team specific words of knowledge for people on the streets - occupations, family situations, occupations, and events that had happened in the past. Many of these people were so impacted they were totally opened up to Jesus.
- A few of the guys were drunk and some kids wanted to feel God. They gave their hearts to the Lord.
- A fragrance came in the meetings on several occasions.
- Oil appeared dripping from the walls of a bedroom in the morning - these guys had never seen this stuff ever before.
- Gold dust covered one of the team members hands.
- One young girl started to know where angels were in the room and started to see them for the first time. She was blown away.
- Others were whacked up for the first time in years.
- Visible flashes of light were seen in the room as the angelic was moving.
The youth group which the church has been doing for ages for locals exploded when the youth leaders were drunk and shacking and had to explain what was happening to them. Here's the story...
Sam, Meg & Charlotte (our daughters) were involved in a mega prayer/prophesy marathon at the youthclub last night. Kids were coming in off the park just to be prayed for & have words spoken over their lives. There were words of knowledge going on & it was so packed that there was no room. The kids went & got more kids from the park & they knocked on the door even after the youthy had shut, asking for more prayer for their mates. Sam said it all happened because he & Meg were laughing, getting in the glory & sharing stories about how great God is. Meg was thrilled because you/Dave had said that morning that there'll be times when something happens just because she's there!! This is awesome man, thanks for what you've deposited with us.
A woman who couldn't sleep on her back was able to sleep again on her back for the first time in years - a major breakthrough for her...the email says...
... she said that yesterday afternoon she felt God prompt her to go to bed for a lie down. She didn't really want to because she stiffens up during the day if she goes to bed but she did as she was told. If Sue lies on her back she is usually in a lot of physical pain, to the point where she cries out. However, yesterday she lay on her back, pain free & she even slept on her back throughout the night. This is unheard of!! Come on!!
Some guys at the meetings had NEVER seen this stuff before or done any supernatural stuff despite working with young people for years. They said they couldn't understand it but knew it was God and wanted it. One of them had oil drip down the walls in their home the Sunday morning. Here's their latest update...
The oil has left the wall with only a stain left... Not to worry; got it on my hands instead this morning. Went to Plessington for a meeting and my hands started shimmering silver, it was all over my mobile as well where I had hold of it; a couple of us were standing in reception staring at my hands. Then had a lesson at Calday boys and then CU at lunch; Crystal clear word of knowledge before the lesson for a lad and his Dad but didn't meet the lad. Go in to CU and oils comes on my hands, pray for one kid's messed up toe, with teachers, and his leg starts twitching (no confirmation of healing yet); then we pray and God tells me which kid is the kid with the Dad from before. Speak out the word and he and all his mates are freaked. Spot on! Jake is having words of knowledge at home!!!!!! Flip, this is nuts!!!!! Jake suddenly knows stuff about me that nobody else knows.... ARGGGHHHH. He is prophesying healing over a kid in the MadHouse play group and shouting "God is Amazing". This morning we pulled infection and ear ache out of Matthews ear. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is amazing. Going from nothing supernatural to breakouts! When people embrace what God is doing it births destiny, breakthrough and fulfilment.
Others came from outside the area and were blasted. Here's one story from some Leeds guys....
6 of us came from Leeds to join in on Saturday. All I can say is that I was blessed from my head to my toes... I just felt and enjoyed the presence of the Holy Spirit in a way which hasn't happened for years. I still felt quite drunk yesterday and today I am just enjoying God' presence in a fresh way. I have been spoilt and don't want to live as I was any more. Thank you all for coming up to share what God is doing. Now we want to see God touch our friends and people who don't know Him in Leeds.
So that kind of gives a taste of what we saw. Let the Northern Lights arise! The Lord showed us tribes are rising in the North to break open the region, spreading over the borders into Wales, Ireland and Scotland, and down into the Midlands. The heart of England is going to get shocked again by a bolt of supernatural glory. The heart of England is coming alive once more. The Northern region is set for an uprising of warriors. It's time for the Northern Lights to shine! Keep your eyes peeled across that region. Wild fires on the high places! Wild fire on the streets! A sound will be heard, a mighty roar that will travel for miles.
Blessings, EMERGE Team
GLORY on the streets North Wales
13th April 2008
This is the stuff it's all about! Here's an update from some guys connecting in with Emerge - Andy, Lucy and Kathy with awesome glory stories from the streets on the most recent phase of the sowing seeds prayer walk through the nation! Yeah God!
Hunger on the streets
During a recent prayer walk from Caernarvon to Liverpool, a few of us went out on the streets in Colwyn Bay, Rhyl and Birkenhead. We saw amazing hunger for God, breakouts of gold and young people begin journeys of faith.
In Colwyn Bay lots of people stopped to talk. We prayed for healings and gave prophetic words. One lady began to cry as she was so pleased and surprised that people were talking kindly to her. I think what she encountered was God in our smiles and words.
The openness of young people in Rhyl was incredible. We were asking for heaven to breakout in their lives. On many young people gold dust was on their hands before we even started to pray!
We met a teenage girl and spoke to her about how God loved her, thought she was precious and could forgive her. She seemed interested but cautious. She opened up a little bit and then said, 'Are you sure he can forgive me for everything, even if I have had an abortion?' She then got really embarrassed and left quickly. I wanted to speak with her more.
An hour or so later we passed her with a friend outside a house. As we walked down the street her friend shouted after us 'Will you pray for me?' She came running over the road towards us and said she had a pain in her stomach. Andy prayed for her, she started to laugh and said she felt a tingly feeling. She then gave to her life to Jesus and explained it by saying, 'I have just asked Jesus to come into my heart, so I can speak to him all the time'. The girl who we had met earlier also asked if we could pray for her stomach, so we were able to ask for God's love and healing to touch her, which was amazing.
The following day in Birkenhead we prayed for people for healing, gave prophetic insight and again saw gold dust on young people's hands. One guy we met seemed reluctant at first, but as God gave us words about the direction of his life he opened right up, and said he was really grateful we had taken the time to talk.
We met two teenage girls who were hungry for God. Gold came on their hands and God gave us words for them. They were surprised how we knew stuff! After speaking with them for a while they prayed with us to invite God to come into their hearts and be in their lives.
It's not often you hear the words 'will you pray for me?' as you walk down the street. We were so wrecked by God's love for the lost and the broken. Seeing His sweetness poured out on the hungry was such a privilege. There is a challenge for us to rise up and respond to the hungry so the fishies can come in. It will stretch us, but we can do it if we stay in the shooby juice of the golden glory!
Lucy Frazer, Kathy (crazy girl) Gada and Andy (wild man) Crump!

Since October 2005 God has been coming in a heavy glory manifestation in South Wales. Many of us have been impacted and ignited by this. It's difficult to say where or when it started as so many are encountering God in different ways. All we know is that something was birthed and Emerge and other ministries have been feeding and caring for this baby to see it spread and grow.
For us it started in October 2005 after a season of intensive prayer and seeking God. At 11:05pm His glory crashed into our home for two and half hours. After this we found a heavy presence would remain on us. People would get drunk and gold dust and other signs would manifest in our lives. The glory started to move in and take over eventually leading to us praying full time. Since then we have tried to make it a lifestyle of staying in His presence. We're learning He wants a resting place. As we've honoured Him He has kept coming and now for weeks at a time this glory remains and amazing things take place such as seeing in the Spirit realm, prophetic awareness, angelic interaction, healings, miracles and salvation. This is what Jesus modelled - the Spirit was UPON Him because He anointed Him to preach good news to the poor. Of ourselves we can do nothing! We love and honour the Spirit and want Him to stay! When the Spirit comes He brings the kingdom with Him. This is really the key to everything - intimacy with the Spirit of Glory. He wants to possess us. He wants to own us 24/7.
Wherever we go we find this glory comes on people and ignites destiny, breakthrough and hunger. The fruit of these encounters are amazing. We consider it a great privilege to be a part of this in spreading the fire. We realise there is a long way to go but over time you can see the miracles, salvations and stories are increasing.
But our main goal and focus is encountering God and taking Him to the harvest. God is restoring the glory of the gospel with power, signs and wonders. God is going to move in a very public, visible way and the nations will be amazed at His glory. What is coming worldwide has little historical precedent in terms of scope or impact. Azusa Street and the Welsh revival of 1904 show how quickly God can move and impact nations. There is a Tsunami rising out in the sea that is going to re-define a generation when it fully manifests. This has been the hope and prayer of many for generations, and it now beginning to be realised. These unusual signs and wonders, angelic encounters and manifestations of God's presence are going to continue to increase until nations turn. This is one of the greater works Jesus spoke about - nations being born in a day and turning to Him. The leaves of heaven are coming down to bring healing. Through the church God is going to reverse the curse of Babel.
Wild fire France - A pearl of great price
We've just come back from meeting with the hungry in Paris, France. There are grassroot movements rising all over the earth that have the same DNA. They've had enough of the status quo, they are emerging and daring to believe. God is honouring the faith, expectation and hunger with His glory. Very few of the new leaders we are meeting in the Nations are known or the chosen in church circles. God is choosing the foolish things to shame the wise. The spiritual landscape is changing and with a few years many new leaders will be carrying the torch visibly for a new generation. Those who resist the Spirit of Grace have had their day. But from obscurity champions of heaven are going to arise like Gideon and turn the battle at the gates of the cities of the earth. In days of crisis God looks for the willing - and there are many that are now awake to the trumpet sound.
Preaching in France. Come on heaven!!!
This time we took a new team from the UK for this trip with guys from England and Wales. Everything just flowed and released the wild fire together (surely a sign of things to come). We heard many stories from our last visit there a year ago that so blessed us. They were hungry, really hungry and I know this thing can only keep spreading. Even since we've been our host families have had an angelic encounter. God acts and who can stop it?
On the Saturday night the fire just broke out at one point. There was such a burning in the room. France is soaked with martyrs blood. That blood is a prayer that still speaks. God is answering with FIRE. The best is yet to come for this nation. When God pays back the devil He does it in style!
Crazy French people - We love you!!!
After the wild fire gathering on the Saturday we split up and ministered in different places on the Sunday. This is one of the greatest benefits of taking teams - you can spread out! Everyone has a part to play in these days. One man ministry is officially over! One of the team - Nigel Stock preached in a home church in French. How awesome it that! Come on glory! Justin and Rachel ministered to the sick in another church and people got whacked up real good. We then met for a lunch time glory fest. Loads of people showed up and there was a lotta fun in the juice!
We really see the connection between the UK and France growing. It's interesting that their head of government President Nicholas Sarkozy recently came here and is seeking a new era of cooperation. Could it be that this is just a sign in the natural of what is already happening in the spiritual. Martin Scott will be travelling there also during the next few weeks - but this time to the South. Sowing seeds reaping trees! Whatever the future holds it is clear France is being highlighted by the Lord again in these days. Viva La France!!! Viva La France!! Wales is with you in the battle!
South Coast Glory
This week Justin travelled down to the South Coast to a Deeper night in Portsmouth. Kathy and Lucy were hosting and the whole thing was pretty wild. Those guys have got the goods and new people are connecting all the time. Each night seems to go a little higher. We're just cheering them on! Amazing to hear how God has impacted so many people through the Welsh wild fire. This is a movement that is moving!
Then we went to check out the land for the South Coast Street tour in the summer. We're planning on taking a team along the coast to fish. Ended up praying for people and just getting wrecked on how much Jesus loves the lost. Portsmouth is going to be a fishy harvest in the summer. It's set up for it. Really exciting. God yearns for the lost and we're following His heart. Keep an eye open for the tour. It's going to AMAZING!
Belgium Brussels
This weekend we went to Brussels, Belgium to speak at a conference with our matey John Crowder. Another chance to whack innocent people, connect, push the spiritual boundaries and encounter God. This was our first time to Belgium. We love spending time with John. He is an inspiration and adds fuel to the fire. John has seem some unusual signs and wonders recently. Will hear about that soon enough at Sloshfest '08 - Head in the Barrel (don't forget to register)!
John "permanentmarkerpen" Crowder and Justin Abraham in Brussels
Brussels is the unofficial capital of Europe. Just wandering around the streets you can see the moral and spiritual decay that has set into this continent. Our hosts showed us around. One area of the City was a row of shop windows with prostitutes in their underwear enticing people to come in. I had never seen anything like it before. This was going on in broad daylight with mothers and children going about their daily lives. Unbelievable.
We really felt God's heart for these woman. That is not God's plan for them - these are people's sisters, daughters and even wives. How has this happened? We heard that Antwerp also has the same problem. God wants to restore dignity and honour to these precious woman. We have been invited to mobilize a team to go back there to impact those tied up in this industry. If that is something you feel called to let us know. We will need women for that type of trip as it is far too sketchy for men to be on the front line for obvious reasons.
Throughout Brussels you can see Islam. It is rising and there were Moslems everywhere. God has brought the harvest to our door. We went out onto the streets to reach the lost. I stood up in the middle of a food area in the train station and preached heaven was at hand. The security guys tried to stop up but it was too late, the hungry people wanted prayer. I told them there was no law against it! They said people can go to church if they want God. I told them Jesus went to the people. They couldn't stop us. We saw people crying as God move on them. It was powerful. Other members of the team had similar experiences and some people fell under the power, others accepted Jesus as Lord throwing beer cans into the bin. Some of the team gave out roses and totally disarmed people with God's love. The harvest is ripe across Europe but will we go? Our hearts are burning for the lost. I cannot explain the groan we now feel. This movement is going way beyond conferences, renewal and events, it is going to the most broken, lost and hungry places in the nations. The gospel will be preached to the poor. These are days of outrageous grace on a broken generation.
View from the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. Lot of glory up there!!!
That's it for today's update. Just wanted to keep our friends and partners in the loop! We may not always send out regular updates, but God is moving in power and we are amazed. Eventually thousands will gather and the miracles will be seen on TV and the web. God is raising a Joel's army out of the ashes of religion and defeat. This army will be clothed in power, purity and unity and Christianity will never be irrelevant again.
Blessings, Emerge team.
Supernatural oil, perfume and winds - January 2008
Hey there! Crazy weekend of heavy glory with Gary and Sarah in Cardiff and wild fire Bristol. People came from all over the UK to get whacked by God. Lots of stories coming in. On the Saturday a pool of oil appeared out the front and Tim (Wales very own Godfrey Birtill!) got healed when he touched the oil onto his body. On the Sunday people came to the meeting with stories of fragrances filling their house. On the Saturday night oil appeared in Gary's bible - it was full of the stuff. Angels came and interacted with people. Many people smelt God. Next day the worship team told us the cymbals and drums smelt of a fragrance and as they were talking about this stuff oil came on Ann's hands. Many people have reported personal breakthroughs. These are days of great grace on a broken generation and we feel privileged to see it. Here's one testimony...
Wind and Fragrances of heaven
I arrived on Sat feeling like a dry sponge thrown onto a bucket of water and just floating on top of it.
During the worship just before we prayed for the kids I felt like someone had turned on one of those big fans used on movie sets to create wind effects, it was soooooo loud I thought everyone must be feeling/hearing it but was gobsmacked when my husband and friends said later that they hadn't! Then there was a gentle sound of approaching summer rain but it got louder and louder like a torrential downpour in Asia (we've lived out there and it is really something in the monsoon). Just after I got a trumpet call type groaning with a real sense of battle but with victory already a sure thing for us (now if only book makers would offer odds on that!!).
If that wasn't brill enough I was smelling cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla for ages during the word (imagine that in such a crowded sweaty room full of people!) and the weight of glory was physical. I was immersed in peace and relaxation which if you knew me you'd say 'about time too!' We've been going through a really difficult situation at our girl's school where requests from us for Health and Safety rules (Fire Risk) to be observed by the Headteacher has resulted in false accusations and unpleasantness. I've had high blood pressure and been so angry and outraged at the injustice. Although I've cried out to Jesus to change my heart and help me to respond, and not just react, I just haven't had the break through. WELL I HAVE NOW!! Not only that I have real compassion and love for her. I want to see break through for her and have faith to know that when we go to see her soon, whatever she says (I'm expecting a verbal attack) it will be an opportunity for God to impact her life as we RESPOND in what ever way He would have us do......I'm in faith for salvation for her and a whole school and staff impacted. (We also have an openly practising witch as a teacher in the school - Daddy get 'em with your glory and love 'em up!!).
My husband was really encouraged too, he's had a tough few months with this situation, also being made redundant and moving into a new postition that is challenging his comfort zones, he has been very occupied with 'stuff'. So it was a real blessing to him too.
I think that sponge is quite a bit wetter now and I'll be pushing in for a whole lot more!
K. from Cardiff
Great story!
We had an email last night of gold dust appearing in the kitchen. God's glory is actually being seen in these days. Make room and He will come. He loves you more than you realise and is hungry for you!
Wild Fire hits India - Dec 2007
All I can say is Wow, what an amazing time we had in India. I just want to thank God for those of you who prayed for us and those who gave sacrificially towards this trip, sending us to harvest Mumbai. God's presence came so strong. I have never been in a series of meetings where I have seen such an explosion of healings and the miraculous. Each night God's Glory showed up and all the little fishies keenly jumped into our boats. On two of the nights we saw over 700 souls saved. One night we saw maybe a hundred healings and miracles. What shocked us wasn't just the quantity of healings but the way that God healed so many with very serious conditions. Here in the U.K we get excited and so we should when we see back pains healed or knees that have been stiff loosened up, but what we saw in India was so significant. We saw so many completely deaf ears open up, many many cancerous tumours disappeared. I prayed for one lady that had a tumour the size of a strawberry on her neck, I felt it starting to shrink, she returned the following night and testified that it had totally gone. We saw several cripples walk, many had teeth grow back into their heads and the stories go on and on. John Crowder prayed for one lady who wasn't able to stand up as her body was twisted up, as he stood her on her feet she straightened up and walked away completely healed! God is so good!

New connections in London
It is the connections that have been amazing. One girl phoned and will be moving to France in the New year and gave me the email of a friend already in France to pass on to Annette who has bought a house in Limoges. Another girl phoned from Cobham and wanted to come if Justin and Dave were going to be here because they want to start their own meetings in Cobham and weren't sure whether to have in a home or bigger venue. Peter Martin phoned from Bogner Regis. He has had connections with Martin Scott and gets the Emerge Wales emails. He's hungry for God and wants to connect with us. He has family in our area and wont find it difficult to come. A leader from a church nearby wanted to connect with people who are hungry like she is and a friend connected to Emerge told her about our meeting. There were 4 of us there who are all training to be Street Pastors, which was interesting, so we were asking for Divine appointments etc. etc. Come Lord to the streets of Romford. We want to see people set free and touched by Your fire! 3 fellas travelled one and a half hours to get here and we had a wail of a time with them. Had a second meeting with them as a lot of people had gone by the time they arrived. One guy started prophesying about my house and that was me gone!! We were prophesying to each other at the end and it was so encouraging. Marion left her bag here from the first meeting, came back for it and received a prophecy from this guy Andy. She was really encouraged. One of the guys sent me an email after to say how awesome it was to be in the Presence of Jesus with us! It is so exciting. He (not Jesus!!) can't be at our next one which is November 4th at 2.30 because he is in U.S.A. but wants to come again. More Lord ! We are hungry for more of you. Each meeting has been different and God has met with us each time.Can't wait to see what He is going to do at the next one!! Love Gerry xx
TRIP TO IRELAND (BRIDGE COMMUNITY CHURCH)
Hi Guys, Update on today's mission. We encouraged a number of people on the way round the city. But more importantly we were able to pray for Nass a Philipino guy working in a Chinese restaurant by the river. He was blessed, and the power of God was all over him. Pastor Penny, and Pastor Ceedo a couple of AOG folk from Texas who are involved in a church plant in Belfast, who we met as they were giving out invitations to a celebration next Tues. We prayed Dad's blessing on them. Dave nearly fell on the floor under the anointing 'cos it was so strong. Nan was on her way to Lisburn whom we met in the railway station, so we prayed a blessing on her. Dave thought it was important that we should bring our Welsh fire, and our St. David's flag. We found St. Georges Church, the oldest Christian site in Belfast, and we released the Welsh fire, laid the flag on the floor and prayed. Dave almost fell out here too. We also made it to St. Annes, Belfast Cathederal, where in the chapel for the Holy Spirit, we laid the flag overthe pulpit and prayed again for unity and revival to hit N. Ireland. In between all that we managed to take in lots of the city sights, wear our shoe leather out, and get Irish Stew and a pint for lunch. Tomorrow we feel we should look around more churches in the city, to pray and release the Welsh fire. Oh by the way we have just come back from Ian Paisley's 'free' Presbyterian church. It's massive, and all the gates were chained and locked, so we prayed for freedom from religious spirits. Thanks for praying, Denis and Dave. Bridge Community Church.
Fish jumping in the boat
Dave has been sharing around the UK about how we're coming into the days where the fish are just jumping into our little glory boat. Everytime we go on the streets stuff happens. We just smell of fish. Sarah Brenton one of the guys who travels with us led four people to the Lord over two days during Wild fire Bristol and Sloshfest. Up until then she'd never seen anyone saved before. She smells like fish and so does the rest of the team!! We saw around 30 saved in Bristol in just over an hour and a half of standing on the streets getting whacked.
In Manchester this weekend we saw God move again with healings and salvations on the high street. Dave walked up to one girl and when he was six foot away she began to cry. Dave said "What are you feeling?" She said heat came all over her chest. She was really touched and gave her heart to the Lord. Soon after she got healed of partial deafness when we prayed for her. She said she couldn't put into words how she felt or how much this had meant to her. She was overwhelmed by God's love and you could see God's presence all over her face. Another teenager, this time a young boy who wanted to be a footballer had back problems and was shocked when God instantly healed him. He wanted to become a Christian there and then. It was great! We got to prophesy and talk to a whole bunch of people.
God is doing some awesome stuff. Here's a UTUBE video - it's so funny. The fish are jumping in the boat, smacking the guy in the face. These are the days we're living in. The glory is drawing people to Jesus. We just get whacked in a public place and it happens!
This has been a summer of glory on the streets. We've seen over 100 saved in a short time and it's been so much fun! It's a small sign of the awesome revival that is to come. Thousands will gather. Creative miracles will turn whole towns. We go from glory to glory and the best is yet to come! Jesus rocks!!!
Story - Glory in the hair dressers!
Finally a nice testimony came in this last week from a friend of ours Beulah in South Wales. Here's the story in her own words...
A few weeks ago I went to have my hair cut and I prayed that God would give me an opportunity to speak to him. Anyway I went and got talking to him about general stuff and then as he was cutting my hair he asked me if I had been partying on the weekend which was a strange thing to say. I said no and then he asked me if I was sure I had not been partying to which I asked him why . He then informed me that there was all glitter in my hair in colours gold, silver, blues, greens etc.and at that point I realized this was God at work so I was able to talk to him about things. I never saw the "glitter" and wish I'd asked for a mirror now but in many ways it was not for me it was for the guy to see. God is awesome. Blessings, Beulah
Great stuff! God is so creative. Love it. In Manchester on the Saturday night a whole lot of angelic activity was going on at the back with people shacking and stuff. Gold dust just seemed to drop on Helen's leg and hands. It was great and such a sign for the people there who'd never seen this stuff before. We're in days of visible glory like Isaiah 60 - it will be seen. We're finding the glory keep coming, but we know we've seen nothing yet!

Sloshed in the U.K. , Harvest Glory in the Streets
Update by John Crowder (www.thenewmystics.org)
I have just returned from England and Wales where we saw first fruits of a massive explosion of harvest the Lord is beginning to release on the streets. There was also a tremendous weight of Glory on the meetings as our European associates, Emerge Wales, hosted "Slosh Fest," a time of experiencing the drunken bliss of Jesus!
Prior to Sloshie, we ventured to Bristol for three days of wildfire gatherings. I must say that the week was a blur. There was a deep realm of divine ecstasy that opened during the gatherings. Many were equipped and activated in the supernatural, along with a powerful release of prophetic revelation.
Thirty Saved in the Marketplace
We brought a team of crazies out on the streets for an afternoon of fishing in Bristol , home base of the great revivalist John Wesley. The culture of the U.K. may be known for its reserved demeanor, but the people are hungry and the harvest is ripe! We took a dozen ecstatic drinkers with us onto the high Street and had a Holy Ghost party. Bodies started to hit the pavement, with men and women shaking and convulsing powerfully under the heavy weight of the Glory. It did not take long for a crowd to gather. I felt the Lord say, "Don't think about harvest; think about me!" The more I got hammered at the thought of Jesus, the more drunk I got, and the more people stopped to watch us. We led 30 people to Christ in just two hours because of the crazy drunken bliss in the streets!
Mass Glory Outbreaks on the Streets
There is a harvest Glory being released in this day, which makes evangelism not a task but a delight. We will just float down the street in the Glory, and the little fishies will jump into our boats! Going to the streets and the marketplace becomes an addiction for those who begin to taste this harvest Glory. We long to offer Jesus every delicacy – to give him the sweet fruit of intimacy, but also the fields of harvest.
The hearts of lovers must carry their bliss to the extreme. This love will drive us to bring in the harvest, even at the cost of our lives. The wine of heaven enables a supernatural boldness and freedom from the fear of man. This joy is also called the spirit of a martyr. You don't have to get killed to have this spirit! But you will get blissed! While on the streets, I led six teenagers to the Lord simultaneously in one prayer. We prayed for a woman in a wheelchair with vertebrae problems, and she felt fire run up her spine. After a word of knowledge, both she and her daughter received the Lord.
Some people came forward for prayer, but when we laid hands on them, they felt God's presence and ran off shrieking! A policeman came by to investigate what was going on, with all of the dropped and twitching bodies, screams and laughter. We told him we were praying for people, but when we asked him if he wanted prayer, he ran off and one of the team members chased him down the street!
The key to harvest evangelism is to get blasted in the Spirit and enjoy it! We sometimes bring teams onto the streets with no program or plan in mind. Prophetic evangelism, dream interpretation and other revelatory-based efforts are wonderful. But when we just get whacked in the Spirit, with bodies falling over, shaking and drinking heavily, it seems that God's Glory gets the job done just as easily! Suddenly crowds start to appear, amazed not just at the craziness, but at the obvious fun we are having. Our lives have been laid down, in that we no longer care about the opinions of man. Seeing the joyful manifestations, people start to come up to us and say, "Do that to me!"
Harvesting Lovers
Some try to offer the Lord a harvest in immaturity, and they bear little fruit. True maturity is to get possessed by the Spirit. We are matured by the bliss, and when our joy is ripe it explodes out of us in heart-felt devotion for the world to see. If evangelism seems difficult for you – if it still feels like a dry duty – you are probably still doing it out of obligation or striving for acceptance. You may want to stop altogether for a while and just drink the love of Jesus! When you drink enough, it will eventually spill out. The love will need an escape valve! And a drunken man will do and say things that a sober man will not. If your sacrifice is a work of duty, you must return to the place of pleasure! Then harvest will come as an overflowing work of love. We labor in the fields as a blissful byproduct of our unconditional acceptance.
"God wants you to be a lover. And He wants you to be a working lover. Who you are is the lover, and what you do is the work. You are not to be only a worker who struggles to love God. Instead, you are a lover of God," writes Mike Bickle in The Pleasures of Loving God. "Being lovers is our very identity. It's who we are. We are lovers of God who happen to work, not the other way around. … God wants us to be relationally oriented first, and achievement oriented second."
Our identity – lovers of God – supersedes our actions – fulfilling the Great Commission, etc. Moreover, until we become who we are, we can never fulfill what we've been called to do.
When we get blasted in the love of God, things start to happen around us. Our intimate relationship with God should not be sectioned off from the rest of our lives and cloistered into the prayer closet. God wants to invade the fabric of our lifestyle with the enjoyment of His presence. Actions and fruitfulness are byproducts of a lifestyle of intimacy.
The Great Commission is about to move from a paradigm of work and sacrificial labor to a response of lovesick bridal devotion. There is a place of love that reclines under the apple tree, but there is also an intensity of love that can literally drive us to do great exploits. The apostle Paul said, "The love of Christ compels us …" (2 Cor. 5:14). We literally become love slaves, compelled and driven by a loving passion that burns like fire in our bones. When this is real, and not feigned by a religious spirit, then it becomes contagious. The world is hungry for pure, abandoned pleasure! Stop striving. Stop twisting people's arms to get saved! Get whacked and just watch the little fishies jump into your boat!
Salvations, healings and supernatural sings...
Hey guys the last month has been amazing. Probably the most exciting yet in terms of seeing God move on the streets.
When Jim Drown and Josh Mills came to Cardiff , they both felt it was to impart glory harvest – the manifestation of God’s glory that leads to salvations. Jim calls it Gory invasion. We took Jim onto the streets and saw many people saved in Gloucester , Cardiff , and Brynmawr (around 60 or more people in just a few hours). Five kids got saved in the night at Brynmawr when silver dust appeared on their hands. Since that meeting they told the pastor the silver has kept coming on them. Since that time we’ve been seeing the little fishes jumping into the boat! They are drawn to the glory.
In Ireland the two days at the Puck Fair was a blast. We saw many people come for spiritual readings (prophetic words) and dream interpretations. The hunger was extreme with at times four teams running at the same time. Once we got into the flow (you sometimes have to press through) the revelations kept on coming, with some guys on the team getting names, places, careers and so on. The news spread around town and even the one of the psychics came to see us for a word. Just in the town some for the team saw two people healed while we were waiting for the festival goat to be released (a weird tradition – the poor goat is held up in the air for three days, before being set free). Even closing the tent we saw two healed and three saved as a group of travellers came up to us. They were so hungry they were begging for a word. Awesome God!
During Wild Fire Bristol last week the meetings were pretty crazy (you had to be there!). We took a team onto the streets to just get hammered in the Holy Ghost and see what happens. There was no plan other than getting as whacked as possible in the drunken glory of Jesus. In just an hour and a half around twenty people accepted Jesus and several were healed emotionally and physically. Many people gathered around us to see what was happening. Some kids just wanted it without even knowing what it was. God gave us some pretty precise prophetic revelations for people. Funny thing was a police man came to check us out when he saw a body on the floor. When I asked if he wanted prayer too, you should have seen him run away I almost chased him up the road! It was brilliant! The kingdom of heaven is at hand!
Even at the Slosh Fest some of the crazies led people Christ during the break times. One bloke got saved and came to the meeting to be baptised that day. Around seven people were baptised at the meetings. So we’re pretty excited. Just this week I went into a shop and the Lord showed me the woman serving was an artist and was fuzzy about here future career direction. When I asked her if she was an artist and told her clarity was coming over the next few months regarding her career direction she was blown away and asked if I was a psychic. It felt so good to say it was God speaking! Christians are going to be known again as carriers of the kingdom glory.
See guys God is moving in a new way. There is an amplification of the prophetic and the glory coming on the streets. Gary Morgan said that Shift and Quicken (angels Gary has met) were being released to speed things up in Wales . We’re just so thankful that the things we’ve been praying for are now being manifested before our eyes. We are literally seeing destiny, breakthrough and fulfilment repeatedly. And what is coming will exceed in every way what we are seeing right now. We go from glory to glory.

God moving on the streets of Ireland
Hey guys, we’re having an amazing time right now and hope to send out some reports soon. In Ireland we saw God move in a new age fair over two days in an extraordinary way. We saw healings, salvations and many people come for dream interpretations and spiritual readings (prophecies). Even one of the psychics came because she’d heard we were so good and she wasn’t getting any business! People were spreading the news around town!
God was giving us detailed information about people sometimes names, jobs and where people were going to live. The hunger was so strong that even as we were putting the tent down a group of travellers came up begging for a word. Two were healed and three saved within a short time. God is moving on the streets and light belongs in the darkness.

Violent Shaking!
This is an experience my mum had a few months ago. My mum’s name is Isobel, she is 69 years old and was brought up in the Apostolic Church , which emerged from the welsh revival of 1904.
“God spoke to me and violently shook me, all I could say was Oh God, Oh God, The more I cried out Oh God, the more violent the shaking became. My whole body was heaving, I groaned as if I had birth pangs and the anointing grew stronger, and stronger. I knew without a doubt that it was God. I have had a similar experience before but never as violent as this time, while under the state of violent shaking God said to me “This night I am shaking nations and strongholds are coming down”
The more violent the birth-pangs were, strongholds were breaking down. I began to cry out with cries from a depth I did not know I was capable of, the power was so strong I thought, “What is this”? I began to groan from the depth of my innermost being, Oh God, Oh God, Oh God, that was all I could say, Oh God, there was a great wave of violence and power in me, I could only cry out. I said Oh God give me gold dust on my hands so that I would know for sure that this was from Him, back came the answer, NO, gold is an outward sign, I have given you an inward sign, revival is coming, not tonight, not tomorrow, but soon,
I have shook the nations this night, after hours of this violence within me, I wept, and wept, as I have never wept before, then the Lord spoke to me again and said a river of peace would flow through my spirit, and everything became calm,
Then I had a dream, I was inside a church, there was a balcony with two round pillars supporting it, then I saw the pillars crash down. I struggled with what it meant, I could not understand why the balcony did not crumble, then the Holy Spirit revealed this. He was taking away the traditional structure of the church that had stood for years, He was replacing it with a new Holy Spirit structure. He was going to do a new thing, Old things were not going to hold anymore, the Holy Spirit was bringing change, New Holy Spirit pillars are being placed in the church.”

Break the silence!
Hey guys! This is all so cool! We here in Nailsea are getting excited too. We turned the TV on the other night to watch the God TV for the first time in 2 years . Patricia King and James Goll are speaking on how the Lord had challenged them to start using the gift of tongues more. Mick and I decided to go for it. The next evening there was a break through in a normally quiet soaking eve. Ten people turned up when all our regulars werent able to come which totally surprised us and then when we went round and prayed for people they were laughing and set free.
My sister came to stay from Leeds for the weekend and we prayed for my sisters eyes on Sunday eve shes a diabetic and during her teenage years and early 20s found it hard to control her diabetes. Shes now 27 and cant see too well at all HOWEVER after we prayed she has got a great improvement with her eye sight. How cool is that. She can now see hedges, branches and leaves clearly and roof tops etc instead of it all being just a fuzz. Number plates are much clearer though not 100% but she has had a huge improvement so we are praying for the rest now. Probably about 75% improvement so far - she was not far off blind before. We are so excited.
Then I went to see my mum yesterday who is bed ridden and the Lord had given her a dream which has brought so much freedom to her past - stuff she would never ever talk about. I now feel confident to talk about some other things with her which the Lord has put on my heart to bring her to freedom and pray for her healing.
We had some friends down from Winchester last night and when we prayed with them before they went home we had an awesome time. The fire of god came down and they were on the floor sweating like anything and crying etc. THe lady took a spiritual sword out of its sheath and started shouting "Break the Silence" over and over again. God is awesome!
Ha ha! - this rain is definitely a sign of a mighty outpouring of Gods Spirit and whilst I love the sun and the summer - if it means we get more of God then I say rain keep coming!

Open door to next door!
I went to visit my next door neighbours last weekend to thank them for looking after our garden whilst away and spoke of a gentleman who had been miraculously spared from death and recounted his heavenly vision before being restore to health. As I was leaving the gentleman who has a church background but no live faith, drew me back into the house and recounted his own out of body experience when near death.I believe the words I spoke have awakened again fresh faith in his heart and I was able to reassure him as he was frightened by this experience as he was above the bed where he lay and looking down on the surgeons who were performing life saving procedures. He was able to tell them what they were wee doing when he come back into his body and regained consciousness. I reassured Him that "underneath him were "the everlasting arms" and he reflected back that "there is truth in that". Praise Jesus!
It is like at every turn there are opportunities, but it is without stress, pressure, working it up. Jesus is making a way. The release of the Kingdom is at hand.

Carpel Tunnel Syndrome healed on the streets...
Can you remember recently you had a word for me, I think it might have been at Antioch? It was about God making things I had dreamed for on the streets easy. Today I was in town with Jon purposely to allow God's Glory to manifest. Just after I had breakfast in a local cafe we stepped out on the street near the bus station and met a woman who is on the committee of the residents ass. at Wildmill. As we were exchanging pleasantries I noticed on her left wrist she had one of those support things fitted. I asked what was wrong and she said she had carpel tunnel syndrome. I must have hesitated for about 20 seconds before I said 'Can I pray for you?' Immediately she said 'Yes please, I'm in awful pain.' I asked her to rest her wrist in the palm of my hand and we prayed a very simple prayer of command. I wasn't prepared for what happened. (25 yrs of disappointment?) Instantly she began to wriggle her fingers. She said her fingers were tingling, and the pain had completely gone. I told her that was the power of the presence of the Holy Spirit. She was beaming. I believe this 'sign' will be a wonder all over Wildmill before you come up for the carnival.
Later we led someone to the Lord who had depression, prayed for a young man to get a job, and another as he had a nasty bruise on his left eye. I personally watered many seeds I had planted over the years before I got the bus home
